Members drummer_bum Posted June 23, 2009 Members Share Posted June 23, 2009 It doesnt matter if they ship to the UK or not. B8s are {censored} and you will regret ever buying them. Save up your money and get a better set of cymbals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members superkal1 Posted June 23, 2009 Author Members Share Posted June 23, 2009 yeah but at the moment i have really {censored}ty starter cymbals with my kit. itll sound better than them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members drummer_bum Posted June 23, 2009 Members Share Posted June 23, 2009 It would sound better, but for that much money you could probably find some great cymbals used. Not as many cymbals, but the basic 14/16/20. Maybe more if you can find good deals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members johnrobbsmusic Posted June 23, 2009 Members Share Posted June 23, 2009 yeah, B8's really aren't worth it, I have a few of them and I hate them all except my 8 inch splash and it's not the greatest ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the same price (I didn't click nor do I know conversion rates) I'm assuming you can get a nice set of AAX's, HHX's, A customs, or Z Customs. The "effect" cymbals are usually cheaper than the basics anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members devinw Posted June 23, 2009 Members Share Posted June 23, 2009 I had a whole B8 "Pro" setup back in the day. Pretty wretched cymbals. The crash was the worst. Damn thing was nasty sounding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
